2019-10-31drm/i915/lmem: add the fake lmem regionMatthew Auld
Intended for upstream testing so that we can still exercise the LMEM plumbing and !i915_ggtt_has_aperture paths. Smoke tested on Skull Canyon device. This works by allocating an intel_memory_region for a reserved portion of system memory, which we treat like LMEM. For the LMEMBAR we steal the aperture and 1:1 it map to the stolen region. To enable simply set the i915 modparam fake_lmem_start= on the kernel cmdline with the start of reserved region(see memmap=). The size of the region we can use is determined by the size of the mappable aperture, so the size of reserved region should be >= mappable_end. For now we only enable for the selftests. Depends on CONFIG_DRM_I915_UNSTABLE being enabled. eg. memmap=2G$16G i915.fake_lmem_start=0x400000000 v2: make fake_lmem_start an i915 modparam Signed-off-by: Matthew Auld <matthew.auld@intel.com> Cc: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Abdiel Janulgue <abdiel.janulgue@linux.intel.com> Cc: Arkadiusz Hiler <arkadiusz.hiler@intel.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20191030173320.8850-1-matthew.auld@intel.com
2019-10-27drm/i915: Put future HW and their uAPIs under STAGING & BROKENChris Wilson
We would like some freedom to break the user API/ABI for future HW but yet still expose the driver for upstream development on that HW. Currently, we have the i915.force_probe module parameter to avoid binding to HW while the driver is under development, but that is still a little too soft with respect to the stringent no-regression rules if we also plan to be redesigning the uAPI to go along with the new HW. To allow the uAPI to be changed during development, only expose that API and in development HW under STAGING (and BROKEN). Hopefully, making it explicit that such interfaces to that HW are under development and not to be blindly enabled by distributions.
